After a run of injury and the suspension of David Pittman prior to the 1997 AFL Preliminary Final, Adelaide Crows coach Malcolm Blight called up Keating from the Norwood reserves side. Keating subsequently played in the Premiership for Adelaide in just his third AFL match. A week later, Keating played in a Premiership for his SANFL club Norwood.[1]

Keating's brother Clark is a former AFL player who won three premierships with the Brisbane Lions.
